Jaconé Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright, Rusty here. Let's get into what's been cooking up for our patch over this stretch.

We’re kicking off at Jaconé on Friday the 3rd, but honestly, we’re not going anywhere for a while. The surf is there, but it’s small and weak. That morning, with 2ft of SSW swell at 9 seconds, the energy is low at 158, and it’s just not got any grunt. The silver lining is the wind is glassy, so the surface is nice, but the waves themselves are pretty ordinary. By the afternoon, the swell drops to 1ft and the wind turns onshore, making it a complete write-off.

Saturday the 4th is where the window cracks open. The morning serves up a solid 4ft of S swell, but the period jumps to a very long 14 seconds. That kind of long-period groundswell can be tricky at beach breaks, but if it finds a bank at Jaconé, it's going to have some real shape and power. The combined energy is a strong 1010, and with glassy winds, conditions will be clean. This is a standout window for more experienced surfers. The afternoon, the swell pushes up to 6ft, but the wind gets messy and cross-onshore, so it loses that magic.

Sunday the 5th brings a bigger 8ft swell from the SSW, but the period drops to 12 seconds. The wind is onshore in the morning and cross-onshore in the afternoon, and there's some light rain. The energy is very strong at over 1500, but the quality just isn't there with the chop. It’s going to be a messy, blown-out day.

Monday the 6th is a nice change. The size is still solid at 6ft, but the wind has swung around to a clean cross-offshore breeze. The 10-second period from the south keeps the waves lined up. This is a good, solid day for a paddle.

Tuesday the 7th morning is a real treat. 4ft from the SSE, a clean 10-second period, and proper offshore wind from the NE. The surface will be clean and lined up. The afternoon is a washout with onshore wind.

Wednesday the 8th and Thursday the 9th are mostly on the smaller side or have poor wind direction, though Thursday morning has a brief 5ft with glassy conditions that could be a sneaky good session of about five feet.

Friday the 10th and Saturday the 11th are classic smaller, clean days. Swell around the 4ft to 4ft mark, with offshore or cross-offshore winds and a decent 9 to 11-second period. Great for a longboard.

After a few days of smaller and poor conditions, Tuesday the 14th comes alive again. The morning is a bit cross-shore with 7ft, but the afternoon is the real deal: 8ft from the SSW with a 13-second period, glassy winds, and a massive 1782 combined energy. This is one for experienced crew only, but it’s going to be a special, clean, powerful session.

Wednesday the 15th holds 6ft with offshore wind in the morning. The end of the run, Saturday the 18th, caps it off perfectly. 7ft S swell, 11-second period, moderate offshore wind, and excellent conditions for experienced surfers. Another one to circle on the calendar.

So the two standouts to aim for are the Saturday morning, July 4th, for the glassy, long-period groundswell, and the Tuesday afternoon, July 14th, for the powerful, glassy conditions. The rest is a mix of decent smaller swell and some bigger, blown-out days.

Rusty.
